Ingredients:
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 large eggs
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon paprika (optional)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Potatoes: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender, about 10-12 minutes.
- Add the Onions: Add the chopped onion to the skillet and continue to cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Season: Sprinkle the potatoes and onions with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder, if using. Stir well to combine.
- Cook the Eggs: Make four small wells in the potato mixture and crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet and cook until the eggs are set to your liking, about 5 minutes for soft yolks or longer for firmer yolks.
- Serve: If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley and shredded cheese. Serve immediately while hot.
This dish pairs wonderfully with a side of toast or a fresh salad, making it a versatile option for any meal. Enjoy!
